As the Garden State attempts to renew online gaming for the next decade, legislators want to ensure that proper advertising restrictions on NJ sports betting and casino operators are in place.
Sen. Joe Cryan this week introduced Bill S4021, which would prohibit New Jersey sports betting and casino operators from using fraudulent or deceptive ads. It does not define those terms, however.
“It’s even-money that it passes,” Cryan told LSR on Wednesday.
The bill would also preclude companies from reaching customers on self-exclusion lists, or directly appealing to individuals under the legal betting age of 21. “We’ve got a responsibility as a state to provide restrictions where they’re feasible, and in the public interest, and these are,” Cryan said.
